GHSA-m34p-749j-x6m6: js-toml has silent type confusion via falsy-primitive duplicate-key bypass

Summary js-toml's interpreter checks whether a key already exists in a parser-built container with if (object[key]) instead of if (key in object). When the prior value is a falsy primitive — false, 0, 0n, 0.0, -0, or "" — the duplicate-key branch is skipped and the value is silently overwritten by a later sub-table, dotted-key sub-table, or array-of-tables sharing the same name. Per the TOML 1.0.0 spec ("Defining a key multiple times is invalid"; "You cannot define any key or table more than once"), this should be a parse error. The result is structural type confusion of attacker-named keys in the value returned by load(). A boolean-typed false (or numeric 0) becomes a truthy object. Host applications that gate behavior on if (config.flag), if (!user.banned), if (config.allowDelete), or if (config.publicMode) will silently take the truthy branch. This is distinct from GHSA-65fc-cr5f-v7r2 (the 1.0.2 prototype-pollution fix). Object.prototype is not polluted. The Object.create(null) mitigation from 1.0.2 is intact; the bug here is in the duplicate-key state machine, not in container construction. Details Two truthy checks are wrong: src/load/interpreter.ts:214 — Interpreter.tryCreatingObject if (object[key]) { // falsy primitives slip through // duplicate-key logic } else { object[key] = createSafeObject(); // silently overwrites the prior falsy value ... } src/load/interpreter.ts:278 — Interpreter.getOrCreateArray if (object[first] && !Array.isArray(object[first])) { // same flaw throw new DuplicateKeyError(); } object[first] = object[first] || []; // overwrites the prior falsy value Both should use the in operator. Containers are created via Object.create(null), so in is unambiguous (no inherited keys to worry about). The bug is reachable through every parent-walking interpreter path: - assignValue — dotted keys in key = value - createTable — [stdTable] headers - getOrCreateArray — [[arrayOfTables]] headers PoC isAdmin = false [isAdmin] forced = "yes"
